LiveJournal's new terms of service will apply to all, but especially those living in Russia, where the platform is hugely popular. The new LiveJournal rules mean the platform can ban anything it considers "obscene" and, let's be real, Russia has previously applied the word "obscene" to a video game character wearing rainbow coloured laces. Yes, really.

The new LiveJournal changes surely mean an end for the platform, with users already leaving in their droves. If the platform thinks that you are posting apparent "obscene" content then it has the right to delete your blog at the drop of a hat.

Needless to say, people are really rather angry at LiveJournal

What's the internet equivalent of a nuclear missile? Do whatever that is to LiveJournal

While LiveJournal hasn't been especially popular in the UK for many years thanks to social media developments such as Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat, it still has a thriving community. But these new rules look set to end the platform once and for all.

Are you a user? What do you make of the new rules and will it stop you from using the platform in the future? Leave your comments below.
